Slim Jim Phantom helped introduce a generation to rockabilly alongside Brian Setzer and Lee Rocker as the drummer with The Stray Cats. With a love for 50's Rock and Roll, the Stray Cats took inspiration from that bygone era and mixed with their youthful energy and aggression to produce the updated hard-edged rockabilly sound that saw them conquer London, Europe and later the U.S., gaining fans among the likes of Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, and Robert Plant along the way.

**************************

Tapers notes: Night 4 of 4 of The Winter Dance Party 2025. The last night is always the longest night of the event, and usually when the biggest names are booked. No exception here with Chubby Checker headlining, and Slim Jim Phantom closing out the event as usual. As always, this is an all star event hosted by Slim Jim Phantom, with any number of special guests on vocals and other instruments. This is an event I look forward to all year, and every year it just seems to get better, both the event and the people I meet along the way.
